Why Your Pet Needs Plenty of Room to Move
Just like we enjoy having a big, comfortable house, our pets need enough room to feel at home. For small animals like hamsters and guinea pigs, their unbroken floor space is the most important part of their habitat.
Natural Instincts
In the wild, pets like hamsters travel miles every night! A cage that is too small can make them feel trapped, leading to stress and unhappy behaviors like bar-biting.
Better Health
More space means more room to exercise. Active pets stay at a healthy weight and have stronger hearts, helping them live longer and happier lives with you.
How We Check Your Pet's Home
Our checker uses real-world welfare guides to make sure your pet's home isn't just "legal," but truly comfortable. We look at the total square inches of flat floor space, which is the area your pet uses to run, dig, and play every single day.

- Guinea Pig: 1,000 - 1,400+ sq in
